Is a person considered a severer of kinship ties if he refrains from maintaining relations with his siblings due to their demanding money after the inheritance distribution, knowing that maintaining ties with them will bring him problems?

It is not permissible for a Muslim to shun his Muslim brother for more than three nights. This is even more emphasized in the case of kin, as the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "It is not lawful for a man to forsake his brother for more than three nights." Reconciliation is better, and Allah has promised great reward to those who reconcile. Furthermore, shunning prevents the forgiveness of sins on Mondays and Thursdays, and cutting off kinship deprives its perpetrator from entering Paradise, as the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "A قطع (one who severs ties) will not enter Paradise." It is necessary to hasten to maintain ties of kinship and to respond to their ill-treatment with kindness. If one has to choose between dispute and cutting off kinship, or foregoing some rights, then paying money is preferable, seeking Allah's pleasure, maintaining kinship ties, and preventing religious corruption, as the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Shall I not tell you what is better than the rank of fasting, prayer, and charity? Reconciling disputes, for indeed, discord is the shaver." Maintaining kinship ties brings Allah's companionship and aid, and increases sustenance. Regarding the effect of shunning obligatory kin on the acceptance of deeds, Fatwa no. 67189 can be consulted.
